Answer:

4. $3.00...$2.73

Explanation:

Basic EPS = Net income/average number of shares outstanding

                 = 1500000/500000

                 = $3 per share

Diluted EPS = 1500000/(500000 + 50000)

                    = $2.73 per share

Therefore, Colt should report earnings per share for 2018:

Basic Earnings Per Share of $3

Diluted Earnings Per Share of $2.73
